The other day, I took a look back at this past year. As my 2011 Resolution, I decided to just focus on one word. I chose, "Happy" as my word for the year. I wanted to be happy with whatever came my way. Even though there are still things I need to work on, over all, I am very happy with the way 2011 ended.
At the beginning of the year, Matt was unemployed. I was scared, worried, and confused. But in March Matt received a position at Aramark Uniform Services as an Account Executive. I am so grateful for this employment. Matt also received a Part-time position as a Seminary teacher at Highland High school. He loves it. And it has been a major blessing in our lives, despite how time consuming it is.
Matt & I got to spend 4 days in Seattle, WA. It was a quick trip, but it was so nice to get away, just the 2 of us. Washington is such a beautiful state.
Brynlyn started Kindergarten, (sniff, sniff) Boston started the 4th grade at a new school where Grandma teaches and both him and Brynlyn love it. Kamri started Middle School at Sunset Ridge, ( more sniffles!) She is maturing into a beautiful, young lady. Kenistyn is my little side-kick. I love having one on one time with her. I can't believe how fast my kids are growing up and I am just soaking it all up. I don't want to miss a thing. I love being their mom!
In October, I ran a 6K down at Thanksgiving Point. That was a personal triumph. I can't wait for warmer weather to run outside again! We feel very blessed. We are all looking forward to a New Year. I just need to decide on a word for 2012...

I like that idea of choosing a word!
Good post. It made me excited for looking into a new year and what it might bring. It made me sniffle a little too.
